friend,Heather.Today Ms.Perry told the class that theywere going to hold a food fair.Pairs of students wereassigned to bring in a food from a different countryMs.Perry had let the pairs select countries out of ahat.Walter and Heather had picked China.  \n“Do you think they eat hamburgers in China?”asked Walter.  \n“I′m certain they do,but we’re supposed to bringin a food that comes from China,\"replied Heather.  \nWalter sat next to Heather on the bus.  \nThe friends arrived at school.  \n“Well,what about bananas?Do they eat those inChina?\"asked Walter.  \n\"Walter,will you please be serious?\"said Heather.  \n\"I am being serious,\"said Walter.\"I don't  \nknow anything about food from other countries,butI certainly know what I like!\"  \n\"Well,we have to pick a food that comes fromChina,\"replied Heather.“Then an adult will help usprepare that food.We will bring it to the food fair sothat everyone can taste it.\"  \nThe food fair would be fun and educational,too!Each pair of students would give a short report abouttheir food.Students would learn about the countrieswhere the foods came from.Then everyone wouldhave a tasty feast.  \nUnlike the other students,Walter was not lookingforward to the fair.He didn't like to try new foods.He liked hamburgers,cereal,and bananas,and thatwas about it.  \n\"Let's ask Lu Chen about Chinese food,\"  \nsuggested Heather.\"He is from China,so he can giveus some advice.\"  \nWalter liked hamburgers,cereal,and bananas.  \nWalter and Heather talked to Lu Chen.  \nThe next day at school,Walter and Heather foundLu Chen on the playground.\"Hey,Lu Chen,what dothey eat in China?\"asked Walter.  \n\"Well,there are lots of good foods,\"replied LuChen.“There are dumplings and noodles,and tonsof rice,too.\"  \n\"What country are you doing,Lu Chen?\"askedHeather.  \n\"Christine and I are doing Mexico.So we aregoing to make tacos,\"replied Lu Chen.  \n\"That sounds yucky,\"said Walter.  \n“Walter,your taste in food is NOT very creative!”Heather said.  \nHeather and Lu Chen talked about all the foodsthat come from China.Then Heather told Walter,\"Ithink we should try to make egg foo yung!”  \n\"Egg who what?\"said Walter,looking veryconfused.  \n\"It is an egg dish from China.Lu Chen said hisgrandfather would be happy to help us,\"repliedHeather.  \n\"I'd better eat a sandwich before I go to this foodfair because I'm sure I′m not going to want to eat anyof the foods there,\"thought Walter.  \nThe two friends played checkers as they talked.  \n7  \nLu Chen's grandfather helped them.  \nDuring the next
